Those animals deserve to be more than just a statistic. Join us in remembering the animals killed by the Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control in a candlelight vigil on Saturday, April 5, 2008 from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at the Carson Animal Shelter.
On Sunday, April 6, 2008, Los Angeles County shelters will be closed to the public, and that is when the most killing will take place. This candlelight vigil will also remember those animals that will be killed on Sunday.
The candlelight vigil will feature speakers who had animals that they were going to rescue or adopt needlessly killed by the Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control and those who had animals they were going to rescue or adopt die at a Los Angeles County shelter due to the neglect of the Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control.
If you’d like to speak at the candlelight vigil or to RSVP, contact Ryan Olshan at Ryan.Olshan@strongtypes.com.

Cocoa
Cocoa is a 2 year old Rotweiler/ Sheperd Mix. She is Brindle with White Coloring. I adopted Cocoa from the shelter when she was just 7 weeks old. Shortly after I got her, the veterinarian told me that she had Parvo. Together, we did everything necessary to save her life, (I figured I didnt adopt her from the shelter just to let her go, we were gonna fight) and we did and we won.
After a few weeks in the hospital, a blood transfusion and some real care, she was back to her healthy puppy self. We spent a lot of time and money to save her life, and everyday she reminds me that she was worth it. She is a beautiful dog, she’s never had a bad day. She loves to cuddle in bed, run outside and play with other dogs. Since Cocoa was little, she has lived with three other dogs. They were like a little pack of dogs running around our large property. Really a little family. We also took care of a friends cat for a few months and once Cocoa was introduced to the cat, she was in love.
She herself thought she was a cat, when the cat would sit on the back of the couch, so would Cocoa. A big 60 lbs. dog on the back of the couch is almost as cute at the cat. Unfortuantely, we lived in an area that was not so great and had to move quickly.
We were fortunate enough to have her stay with my brother in law, because we all lived on the same property, there was no trauma for her. She stayed in the same place with him, happily. While he went to work out of the city, she went to stay with my sister in law (someone she had visited almost everyday with us) and was so happy because she had two little girls to play with her all day long.
She did great with the girls, they are 5 and 6 years old. Now our time has run out and we can no longer have her with our family, due to their obligations and we have to respect that. We refuse to put her back into the shelter where she will have no chance whatsoever , so we ask for any and all help possible to find her a home asap. She is neutered/spay. If you can help please e-mail me at Bellitzima@yahoo.com
Thank you,

The Bumper Foundation firmly belives the city’s new law requiring all cats and dogs be spayed or neutered will help control LA’s pet population and humanely decrease the number of cats and dogs abandoned and euthanized every year.
MAYOR VILLARAIGOSA SIGNS SPAY/NEUTER ORDINANCE INTO LAW
LOS ANGELES - Pledging to continue the efforts to reduce pet euthanasia and control the City’s pet population, Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, joined by Los Angeles City Councilmembers Richard Alarcón and Tony Cardenas, Los Angeles Department of Animal Services General Manager Ed Boks, Animal Rights Advocate Bob Barker, Humane Society of the United States President Wayne Pacelle, PETCO Foundation President Paul Jolly and local animal advocates, today signed the Spay/Neuter Ordinance, a new law that requires all pet owners in the City of Los Angeles to have their cats and dogs spayed or neutered.
“By requiring that all cats and dogs be spayed or neutered, we can help to humanely decrease the number of pets abandoned and euthanized each year,” said Mayor Villaraigosa. “This ordinance, which contains clear guidelines and enforceable penalties, creates a valuable tool to take this city another step closer toward eliminating the unnecessary euthanasia of animals.”The Spay/Neuter Ordinance will require all pet owners in the City of Los Angeles to have their cats and dogs (four months of age and older) spayed or neutered, unless otherwise exempted because the animal competes, serves as a rescue or service animal, or unless the pet is a registered breeder.
Any person violating the spay/neuter law will be cited, and could be subject to up to a $500 dollar fine or 40 hours of community service.“This spay and neuter will move Los Angeles towards being the most humane city in America by educating pet owners to be more responsible, making our streets safer, reducing the number of animals killed each year in our shelters and allowing us to more effectively use our resources,” said Councilmember Alarcón.
“The problem in our city is not the animals but the human owners, “
“The problem in our city is not the animals but the human owners, and this ordinance will allow the Department of Animal services to target resources towards the worst offenders whose irresponsibility threaten public safety and fills our shelters with unwanted dogs and cats.”This new law, which aims to assist in humanely decreasing the number of cats and dogs abandoned and euthanized every year, also poses health benefits for the animals as well. Spaying reduces the risk of certain types of cancers and infections in females, especially if it is performed prior to the first heat. Moreover, neutering lessens a dog’s temptation to roam, as well as to fight, as studies show that the majority of dog bites are made by intact, untrained male dogs.The signing of this ordinance comes on heels of Spay Day USA 2008, an annual Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) coordinated event, during which, thousands of volunteers coast to coast host activities to educate and assist people with getting their pets spayed or neutered.“The Humane Society of the United States commends the Los Angeles City Council for passing this commonsense measure that will save animal lives and taxpayer dollars,” said Wayne Pacelle, HSUS president and CEO.
“Combined with the availability of financial assistance for pet owners in need, Los Angeles now has the tools in place for successfully ending the euthanasia of healthy and treatable animals.”“As with so many important accomplishments, this Spay/Neuter law is not the end of the story, but rather just the beginning,” said Mayor Villaraigosa. “We will continue to lead the effort by getting our dogs and cats spayed and neutered, licensed and permitted, and saving more animals’ lives.”The new Spay/Neuter law will take effect in April.
